President
Trump announced that Israel and the US-backed Lebanese government have
agreed to a 10-day ceasefire, which is set to go into effect at midnight
in Beirut tonight. This, after immense pressure from Iran to include
Lebanon in the overall ceasefire, and after the IDF failed to accomplish
any of Israel’s goals with its war on south Lebanon.
Journalist
and Lawyer Dimitri Lascaris noted that we have seen no evidence that
the U.S. is finished with its overall war on Iran, and it’s likely the
ceasefire in Lebanon will be used to buy more time, as the U.S. and
Israel prepare for their next attack.
Patrick Henningsen discusses why Trump holds no cards as his negotiating team stares down the abject humiliation of defeat and disaster brought on by their war on Iran.
In Part 4 of the American Erosion series, Shahid Bolsen turns his attention from the structural collapse of the United States to its most underexamined casualty: the psychological condition of Muslims living inside the empire. Bolsen introduces and develops two distinct concepts — psychological colonization, the internalization of the colonizer's worldview, and what he calls psychological colonizer-ization: the adoption not just of the colonizer's inferiority but of the colonizer's supremacy, arrogance, and entitlement to dictate to others. He argues that a significant portion of Western diaspora Muslims carry both disorders simultaneously, producing a fractured psyche that makes them desperate for Western acceptance on one side, and contemptuous of the Muslim world on the other — with the same root cause driving both: the deep internalization of Western supremacy as legitimate.
Bolsen challenges diaspora Muslims directly on their reflexive attacks on Muslim rulers and governments, their parroting of Western geopolitical narratives in Islamic clothing, their need to see the Muslim world as broken and defeated in order to justify their own presence in the West, and their confusion of proximity to power with membership in the project. He closes with a precise structural verdict: you are not a member of the team. You are the soccer ball. And that requires an entirely different orientation — not toward acceptance, but toward witness, honesty, and genuine solidarity with the Ummah.
Iranian
retaliatory strikes have caused far more damage to the US military
aircrafts and personnel at Saudi Arabia's Prince Sultan Airbase than
what was earlier estimated. It has now emerged that the US military's
powerful E-3 Sentry Airborne Warning and Control System was destroyed in
that retaliatory strike. Meanwhile, the IRGC has warned Donald Trump of
consequences in the event of a ground invasion. Rifat Jawaid says that
Iran's ability to target US bases in the Gulf region shows its military
capabilities haven't been degraded as claimed by Trump.
Global conflict is upon us as Trump dutifully does his job as a jewish stooge, plunging America and the western world into an unwinnable war that will be the end of American hegemony, the petro dollar and millions of lives - if we're lucky...
I will be going into this in detail tonight with some background story to understand how we got here, what the current situation is, why this scenario is a catastrophe for the west and how we've already strategically lost.
